From the Publisher
Great fun for both performers and audiences, Douglas Mason’s Latin Dance neatly captures the style and spirit of Latin American music throughout. The melodic writing for the oboe combines suave song-like passages with more energetic material and this effectively compliments the lively syncopated rhythms and colourful harmonies presented by the piano.
Douglas Mason began his musical training as a chorister in Gloucester Cathedral Choir under John Sanders. He subsequently read music at Durham University, and went on to train as a music teacher at Leeds University, also singing professionally as a lay clerk in the Choir of Leeds Parish Church at this time.
As a composer, Douglas focuses on choral works in particular, and he has also written and arranged music for schools. As a performer Douglas has sung on numerous television and radio broadcasts and appeared on recordings for several labels, including Abbey, Priory and ASC records. For several years he was also a member of the William Byrd Singers directed by Stephen Wilkinson.
